Held
Middle-aged woman with long black hair, thin stem of a body sunglasses on a grey day stops to sniff roses outside the Parish Church of the Holy Gospel, bending each one down to her, drawing in each offering holding herself there for seconds that smelt of years. Still Life with Red Cabbages and Onions by Vincent Van Gogh If there is beauty in basic vegetables, earth bulbed sustenance, with their finger-printed lines and licks of bloody light arcing through dull, every day colour, then there can be poetry too; a few fraught words for the feast. Held - May 2017 in DASH from California State University. Still Life.... - June 2017 in IST (Ink, Sweat and Tears).
